Its hard for me to judge an animal in a picture but its defiantly not a small one. Its almost the length of that truck bed...and its back is atleast a foot off the truck. So I would say 350+. Would not be surprised if it was over 400lbs we don't get many over 300 here and that one is as big or bigger than anything I have seen here. Nice bear!

Well...He was 400 ib the rocks charging and a blowing. He was 300 when we got him out of the hole. 280 when we got him to the truck and 260 on the scale. He was a young bear, gonna be a monster. Huge frame, heavy foot, long. He is a nice one but kinda a shame we couldn't have gotten him in a couple years.

yeah but imagine how many dogs he would have gone through to get him in a couple of years

We were lucky not to lose any on this trip. Had one dog ate up. He was in a bad hole. The crack was barely wide enough for the dogs to go in and out of but there was a lot of space behind the rocks. I don't know how he got himself in there. It was real hard to pull him out. nmplott, you might be right.

There isn't any blood on the truck or box. Are the guts still in him?
